Yet another car this guy has introduced that I've driven briefly while working at a Lincoln dealership. One of my favorites indeed, everything about this car just feels right to me. The wood on the steering wheel, the smoothness of engaging that little wooden shift lever, the effortlessness but affirmativeness of turning the wheel, being surrounded by wood throughout the interior, all the thin metal panels and pillars, the uncommon short roof line, all this combined just makes for... how can I explain it... the car feels like you're driving a fancy and expensive mechanical watch. I would love to see what it's like to spend some measurable, practical time with one of these. You know, night driving, highway driving, city driving, carrying passengers etc.

My '02 3.6 X308 has served me brilliantly for 8 years. Apart from tyres and a battery, the only cost outside routine servicing was for one single lonely coil. I've had 17 Jags since '84 and had mechanical problems with one. I'm sick of the Merkel Metal freaks slamming Jaguar reliability. They are as good as any make and far more pleasant to drive than soulless German boxes. In the part of Blighty where I live, BMWs are lovingly described as "drug dealer wheels."

Almost everyone says : the maintenance of a jaguar is very expensive, to replace parts is hell, you'd need to have a repair shop with you. All of this is not true, Especially this jaguar from this period are very reliable, the 4.0 V8 is very strong and durable. The key to a jaguar is : find a jaguar that is well maintained and loved by the previous owners. some particular parts are expensive, but they last for a very long time if you maintain it well. To replace parts is not that of a hell (maybe if you are used to simple american v8 cars only), you need a good bridge, and the right tools for it, its reasonable easy to do. my brother has an XJ8 sovereign, it has 520.000 KM on the clock, and it purrs still very satisfying

The Vanden Plas is the long wheelbase, which is why he can slip into the rear seat so easily. -- On the downside: longer turning radius = no U-turns. It's a _very_ comfortable care. I had a 1991 and in 17 years of driving (not counting windshield wipers, tires and brakes) only had to replace one hose, the steering box and one tail light bulb after about 340K miles. The worst thing was remembering to switch on the cruise control, otherwise I'd find myself sailing along at nearly 100 mph, because there was no sensation of speed, just floating along serenly in total control.

The Inline 6 is renowned as a very reliable and strong engine. You are likely thinking of the V12, but its obvious with double the cylinders you will have double the maintenance & potential major repairs down the line especially if not maintained correctly in the first place which with the V12 it costs much more than the 6. More issues arise with it being a rarer car and parts being hard to find and/or discontinued.@@624radicalham

No... actually had an engine by Cosworth, highly engineered and virtually bullet proof. Came with a timing chain instead of belt however chain tensioners do need to be monitoredif not changed out these days. Nikasol bore coating with small capacity, high flow coolant system means these cars get to optimum operating temp quickly and will never wear out their bores. Ford threw so much money at these things it was ridiculous. Go back two generations before this car and Ford made 1200 running changes to the XJ40 when it bought Jaguar, in 1989 or 90 I think, purely to get the reliability sorted - these are known as a very good car. The next model, x300, is similar to this (x308) but with 6cyl engines. Again, bullet proof and also included a supercharged version. Plastics? Don't know where you get that idea from. They were using free-range leather, double stitching and matched wood veneers. Jaguar's biggest problem at the time? Their clientelle were dying.. of old age. They had the oldest customer demographic of any manufacturer. No choice in the end but to try and move away from the classic designs to something edgier, which they have finally done. The XF's and in particular F-Type set the new direction for Jag. Tata control is good also as it's purely financial with virtually no interference. Cool cars. If you don't care what others think and don't need the validation of a German marque, you drive a Jag and reap the rewards many will never know about. ;-)

Had the 2000 XJ8. Paid nine grand for it when it had 64,000 miles on it. You really need to see the faux wood trim against black leather. That's the ultimate look. Man, those wheels looked amazing after a wash. You may know these models had iffy transmissions, and I had to put a rebuilt in mine, for about 5 grand. But that brought me up to 14 grand. Aside from the usual maintenance, insurance, and tires, and considering I had the ride for about 6 years, the car cost me just less than 200 bucks a month. (14,000 divided by 72) Why did I sell? Insurance , parking, and gas was about 600 a month. Plus, it was going to need timing chains, of which I believe it had about 5. (they say change 'em every 100,000) So, I said goodbye to the dream. But have plenty of pics and movies taken in and of it....I got to drive a Jag for six years, and take it all the way down the California coast on Highway 1. By myself, with my tunes, and no one blabbering at me.

I just got mine, a 2004 with 73K and is in pristine condition. Red with the 4.2 V8. The more you look at it, the more I appreciate the stunning beauty built into this luxury cruiser. I feel so good after watching this video.

*When rightfully maintained*, older Jags can last for a long time, and their ride quality is especially superior to other luxury brands around that time. there's just something about jags from this time. the smoothness of the ride, the effortlessness energy needed to shift the lever and turn the wheel, the feel of the wheel itself, and believe it or not some of these models are really, REALLY FAST.

I had a friend with a 78' jaguar. It only worked about 20 days out of the month. Sorry, I'm a Toyota person as far as cars go but I like Dodge 225 Slant Six, Ford 300 I6, and Chevy 250 I6 pickups (preferably with a T18 Transmission, and NP205 Case).

Bought a X308 Daimler Super V8 00 aka Vanden Plas 2 months ago. The Car is truly amazing in many ways ! Total Luxury, combined with an over-decent Muscle Car Engine ! Sit as low as Ferrari , have suspension like a Rolls or Bentley, and Drive like a 1968 Ford Fast Back. The View in this Car is Superb al around, in busy City traffic ! Size Length is 5,15 Meters, so Parking is a challenge. With a OBD2 Torque App Bluetooth ,and a Small tablet U can make this Car show al his Diagnostics, like any Modern Car. Same counts for Radio Apps , and Front n Rear Cam options. The AJ-V8 was voted Top Ten of Engines made in 2000, by WARDs ! The AJ-V8 had Variable Valve Timing & and a ZF Gearbox . The AJ-V8 with Eaton Supercharger (runs at 88% of it's real power), did not have Variable Valve Timing, and was fitted with a 5G-Tronic MB Gearbox, made for the SL600. These Ford Build , Jaguar Designed Engine's are pretty much indestructible for over 400.000 Km with good maintenance. Greetings All !

I'd always wished that I had the S/C variant. The only downside to your Daimler Super V8 compared with the US-spec VDP S/C is that the Daimler does not have a Leaper hood ornament, that is the signature of this car in my opinion.

Love the Jaguar and all that but I'd have to say, New York City is just not the same anymore without the Crown Vic medallions. It's sad really. I think there are a few black cabs using the Crown Vic but definitely no more medallions.

I guess that no one else sent in any videos, or Scotty is endorsing this car. I would figure that he would give others a chance to show of their cars. This guy seems to be into cars that can break your wallet. I am guessing that he has plenty of money to spend on maintaining these luxury cars.
